Infant,child,teen,adults are all humans at different stages in life. At 3 weeks theres a beating heart,at 8 weeks everything is present and functioning,though not fully formed. The baby has its own seperate DNA. There is not magical change in a baby from 9months gestation to 5 minutes later when he/she is a newborn. The baby is still just as needy,even more so. An infant can not live without someone to care for it. Just because the fetus is not yet fully formed dosent make the baby not a baby. If an adult went through trauma and lost his eyes,limbs,and became and his brain functioned like baby should he be put to sleep? because he is incapable of caring for himself(viability or how about your old mother who depends on a live in nurse cuz she cant live o her own? Its all about justification. You call it tissue until you decide you want it,then you call it baby.
